By letter dated March 27, 2012, (ADAMS Accession No. ML12089A021), the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) requested a 14-day extension to the comment period. The NRC staff granted the NEI’s requested as noticed on April 11, 2012 (77 FR 21813) and given that the comment period had closed on April 9, 2012, the comment period was reopened until April 20, 2012. The NRC received external comments from Mr. Jon Cavello on April 1, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12094A367), Mears Group on April 9, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12103A207), Det Norske Veritas (USA) Inc. on April 13, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12108A049), and NEI on April 20, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12114A214). No other external comments were submitted. The NRC considered these comments in developing the final LR–ISG. Detailed responses to the comments can be found in Appendix G of the final LR–ISG. The final LR–ISG–2011–03 is approved for NRC staff and stakeholder use and will be incorporated into NRC’s next formal license renewal guidance document revision. Backfitting and Issue Finality Issuance of this final LR–ISG does not constitute backfitting as defined in 10 CFR 50.109 (the Backfit Rule) and is not otherwise inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in Part 52, ‘‘Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants,’’ of 10 CFR. As discussed in the ‘‘Backfitting Discussion’’ section of final LR–ISG– 2011–03, the LR–ISG is directed to holders of operating licenses or combined licenses who are currently in the license renewal process. The LR– ISG is not directed to holders of operating licenses or combined licenses until they apply for license renewal. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:15 Aug 01, 2012 Jkt 226001 The LR–ISG is also not directed to licensees who already hold renewed operating or combined licenses.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION [Release No. 34–67520; File No. SR–BATS– 2012–031] Self-Regulatory Organizations; BATS Exchange, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change To Extend the Pilot Program Related to Trading Pauses Due to Extraordinary Market Volatility July 27, 2012. Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that on July 24, 2012, BATS Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘BATS’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange is filing with the Commission a proposal to extend a pilot program previously approved by the Commission related to Rule 11.18, entitled ‘‘Trading Halts Due to Extraordinary Market Volatility.’’ The text of the proposed rule change is available at the Exchange’s Web site at https://www.batstrading.com, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission’s Public Reference Room. II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change.

Frm 00114 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 46129 A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and the Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The purpose of this filing is to extend the effectiveness of the Exchange’s rule related to individual stock circuit breakers, which is contained in Rule 11.18(d) and Interpretation and Policy .05 to Rule 11.18. The rule, explained in further detail below, is currently operating as a pilot program set to expire on July 31, 2012. The Exchange proposes to extend the pilot program to February 4, 2013. On June 10, 2010, the Commission approved on a pilot basis changes to BATS Rule 11.18 to provide for uniform market-wide trading pause standards for individual securities in the S&P 500® Index that experience rapid price movement.3 Later, the Exchange and other markets proposed extension of the trading pause standards on a pilot basis to individual securities in the Russell 1000® Index and specified Exchange Traded Products, which changes the Commission approved on September 10, 2010.4 More recently, the Exchange proposed expansion of the pilot program to apply to all NMS stocks.5 This expansion was approved on June 23, 2011.6 The pilot program relating to trading pause standards has been extended four times since its inception.7 The Exchange believes the benefits to market participants from the individual stock trading pause rule should be continued on a pilot basis. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that its proposal is consistent with the 3 Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62252 (June 10, 2010), 75 FR 34186 (June 16, 2010) (SR– BATS–2010–014). 4 Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62884 (September 10, 2010), 75 FR 56618 (September 16, 2010) (SR–BATS–2010–018). 5 Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64435 (May 6, 2011), 76 FR 27684 (May 12, 2011) (SR–BATS– 2011–016). 6 Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64735 (June 23, 2011), 76 FR 38243 (June 29, 2011) (File Nos.

Described for Withstanding Aircraft Impacts

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Solicitation of public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is soliciting 
public comment on a proposed revision to its Standard Review Plan 
(SRP), NUREG-0800, ``Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety 
Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition.'' The NRC seeks 
comments on a new section of the SRP: Section 19.5: ``Adequacy of 
Design Features and Functional Capabilities Identified and Described 
for Withstanding Aircraft Impacts,'' (Agencywide Documents Access and 
Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML12138A468), under Title 10 of 
the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) part 52. The current SRP does 
not contain guidance on Aircraft Impact Assessment.

DATES: Comments must be filed no later than 30 days from the date of 
publication of this notice in the Federal Register. Comments received 
after this date will be considered, if it is practical to do so, but 
the Commission is able to ensure consideration only for comments 
received on or before this date.

ADDRESSES: You may access information and comment submissions related 
to this document, which the NRC possesses and is publicly available, by 
searching on https://www.regulations.gov under Docket ID NRC-2012-0180.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NRC seeks public comment on a proposed 
new section of the Section 19.5: ``Adequacy of Design Features and 
Functional Capabilities Identified and Described for Withstanding 
Aircraft Impacts,'' (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System 
(ADAMS) Accession No. ML12138A468). This section has been developed to 
assist NRC staff with the review of applications for certain 
construction permits, operating licenses, design approvals, design 
certifications, manufacturing licenses, license amendments, and 
combined licenses and to inform new reactor applicants and other 
affected entities of proposed SRP guidance. Following NRC staff 
evaluation of public comments, the NRC intends to incorporate the final 
approved guidance into the next revision of NUREG-0800.
    The SRP is guidance for the NRC staff. The SRP is not a substitute 
for the NRC's regulations, and compliance with the SRP is not required. 
Accordingly, issuance of the SRP does not constitute ``backfitting'' as 
defined in 10 CFR 50.109(a)(1) of the Backfit Rule and is not otherwise 
inconsistent with the applicable issue finality provisions in 10 CFR 
part 52.
